This is a novel by John Camp (pen name - John Sandford). It is probably the most vicious attack on conservatives, the 2nd Amendment and people in the gun culture. In the end the protagonist, Lucas Davenport who is a politically appointed Deputy US Marshal murders one of the evil guys named Dunn. There is a so-called gun fight. Dunn is armed with a scoped Remington Model 700 in 30 Winchester Magnum which he has never fired before. Earlier in the novel Dunn can't deal with the recoil of a 308. Davenport is armed with an M4. It says the Dunn gets off "three quick shots". Remember, this is a guy that had trouble with a 308. How he gets off three quick shots with a bolt 300 WinMag is beyond me.
I have been reading Sandford/Camp for twenty years and knew he was a lefty from snide comments inserted in the texts. However, I was completely taken aback by this novel. I don't know who is influencing the guy but someone is. I know it's a novel but he has a large following most of whom I suspect are not into firearms and believe all the crap he puts forth in the book. For instance, just about every concealed carry holder he (Davenport) runs into is a fat slob plotting against the government. Ugghhhhh! I could go on and on.
